Hi guys,

This story has had a happy-ish ending. The car is now back in my brothers possession. (off to CSI to get looked over)

However would love to know if anyone saw anything early this morning on beenleigh road at Runcorn. (approx. after 11.00 pm.)

My brother was still up at around 3am but didn't see anything only noticed some head lights but didnt get up to investigate. (as our house mate had his burgandy r33 series 1 stolen from the same house out on the road).

The car had been pushed out of our driveway to just past down infront of the shops on beenleigh road.

They couldn't get the car started, ignition barrel is rooted, all the trimmings are in about 10 pieces and they took the headunit as a consellation probably.

It really looks like a mob of joy riders.

Its has plates MUP37, gtr wing, P1 Buddy clubs in grey same colour as car.

The was specifically was left on the service road beside beeleigh road.

Any help would be awesome. its a stretch as it always is. But even if we could just find out a basic description race colour etc.

Glad to hear you got it back. My skyline never turned up once it went missing. Funny how they can vanish without a trace...

Did the other one go missing on the same night?

I have alot of interior bits if u need them. Potentially most or all of what you need.

Good news, after alot of dicking around from the cops, they finally got a hold of my brother to tell him that they DID print the car after all and got a match from underneath the rear wing.

(Intially they said that they wouldnt print the car cause it had been out in the rain)

The print pertained to some Richard Rooney from Redcliffe. Havent been informed whether they have found and charged the guy. But hopefully we will hear something soon.

My house mates car went about 5 months prior. Its all covered under insurance, only about 8 weeks later but it is getting done.

Btw little bit of useful information, dont ever get your car done by Woollongabba Car Collision, they are under review for dodgey work.

      Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
